The threat will turn out to be the illegal part of this issue.

My son and I are debating when CNN will reveal this reporter has been fired and a settlement in the works to this kiddo. I figure before I get up in a few hours.

Does FR have a right to track your internet habits and determine your IP address in order to verify that you’re a tedious little PC drone determined to play progressive hall monitor here?

It’s funny - CNN was able to nail a Redditer who pissed them off in just hours, yet they haven’t been able to find any proof of collusion between Trump and Russia after looking for a year!

But they didn’t reveal who he was.

They threatened him.

Illegal.

What file format are you posting? It’s not displaying. JPEG or GIF is best here, I’ve had trouble with PNG before.

Reporters do that all the time.

A reporter will tell a politician Tell me AB& C or I might attach your name to D. But if you tell me AB&C, I will leave your name out of this.

I’m hot-linking. It won’t stay forever.

I am watching the 4chan thread as well. They will gear up tomorrow.

They know who the kid is but will never release it.

CNN crossed a line with their doxx threat. CNN may not survive social media.

I am working on my CNN gif. It is the scene from “Good Guys” where Henry and Tommy are kicking the sh*t out of the mafia guy while he is on the floor. I am putting CNN logos on Henry and Tommy’s faces.

Come and get me, CNN.
